About this work

Personification of Peace: a woman in a long robe, with bare breasts, a laurel wreath on her head, standing before a landscape. In her right hand she holds a palm branch, on her left hand sit a pair of turtle doves. Above her head a wreath of clouds from which divine light shines. In the background to the right a musical group under the trees; to the left a shepherd milking a cow. No. 8 from a series of Virtues and Vices that depict the fortunes of life.
